Roma protect prize duo Thursday 20 December, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roma patron Rosella Sensi hopes Daniele De Rossi and Alberto Aquilani opt to stay with the Giallorossi, but Amantino Mancini’s future is unclear.
De Rossi and Aquilani are a crucial midfield duo for the capital club and are both members of the Azzurri set-up.
In recent weeks, Aquilani has been linked with Inter and it is believed that Real Madrid and Milan are tracking De Rossi.
“As far as the club is concerned, they are not for sale,” Sensi stressed. “But we do need to consider the players’ wishes
“We have no problem with negotiating offers for them, but only if they want to leave.
“At the moment I can confirm that Inter haven’t made any offer for Aquilani.”
Brazilian forward Mancini is known to be unsettled in Rome. Having reportedly rejected an offer from Lyon last summer, it is suspected that the 27-year-old could reconsider in the near future.
“He is a Roma player, but if you want to know his future you need to ask him as well,” Sensi responded briskly.
Aside from Mancini, Roma aren’t expected to conduct any negotiations during the January transfer window.

well we better show more interest and prove to the players that this is a club that is fighting for honors and that we can provide them the wining team and the challenge.
it will be a big big loss for us if de rossi and aquilani left the club, not that sure about mancini but we are the ones who are being a little of the word whn we promised an improved deal whn he played better and now he seems to be pegging back wth a dismal show in last few games.
